Towards a Definition of Flarf
Flarf is real, real is Flarf
Flarf is feeling, feeling Flarf
Flarf is wanting to be Flarfed
Flarf is touch, touch is Flarf
Flarf is reaching, reaching Flarf
Flarf is asking to be Flarfed
Flarf is you
You and me
Flarf is knowing
We can be
Flarf is free, free is Flarf
Flarf is living, living Flarf
Flarf is needing to be Flarfed
i deleted a lot of stuff today, but not because i wanted to.
Enthusiasm! For Sawako Nakayasu’s new blog.
On Being a Corrector II
I no that I mispel thigs sometime’s. Realy.
No but seriously. Some people are just natural spellers. We harbor correct spellings in our muscles. It’s a kinesthetic thing. That helps to explain the urge to correct — an almost palpably itchy feeling when we see something spelled wrong.
I must join the chorus in celebration of BKS’ spirited and rational defense of Lowell. Click Free Space Comix link to left.
Tom Beckett, who is most graciously interviewing me, writes in:
Hi Nada,
In Charles Simic’s most recent collection of essays (_The Metaphysician in the Dark_) he quotes this poem by Serbian poet Vasko Popa:
Last News of the Little Box
The little box with the whole world inside
Fell in love with herself
And conceived inside herself
Another little box
The little box’s little box
Fell in love with herself too
And conceived inside herself
Another little box
And so on ad infinitum
The little box’s whole world
Should be somewhere
Inside the little box’s last box
None of the little boxes
In the little box in love with herself
Is the last one
Try finding the world now
I thought the poem interesting both in terms of our present junction in the interview and your recent blogs about narcissism.
